Usually I would also say tan (cooler). But looking at your location and the new blue from Acura, I'd have to recommend Black..

I think Black and Tan are both great, Tan may require more maintenence. BUT, the more important thing to consider is that you will get the Bowling Ball Trim with the black. Another question: Is their even an option in terms of leather? Some of the CL's only come with Black or Tan. Who knows if there is an option with the Blue CL?

I like black leather but not so much the bowling ball trim. I saw the blue CL-S today when I picked up my plates. I don't think it really stands out. I talked to the dealer and he said he thinks Acura started the bluw to compensate for the removal of the sundance gold.

All this talk about Black & Tan is making me thirsty.

I’m on my way to the fridge to get me a Yuengling.

Aegean Blue is only available with Ebony. The regular 2002 TL (and Canadian TL-S's) comes in Eternal Blue which is only available with Parchment.

Black. But it will easily get dirty and the dirt seems very obvious.
